the rules are pretty simple really. Although they may have changed. In DI (FCS) we can have 29 practice days for camp, (a practice day is any day that there is even the slightest practice. This adds to why the building of WATTS was so important to us), with a max of 90 (I think this is now 100) students participating. There can be 40 sessions that need to be divided as follows:
Days 1-5 can be no more than 1 session per day, no pads & limited contact (usually none beyond hands).
This leaves 24 days to use the remaining 35 sessions. 2-a-days count as 2 sessions.
Most teams have a different schedule once school begins, so the 29-days is calculated back from the first game. Here is an example session & the one I think we will see this year:
8/30 - 9/5: First game week, not part of summer/fall camp.
8/23 - 8/29: 4 days of 2-a-day final practice game short session = 9 units
8/16 - 8/22: some combination of 6 days and 10 sessions = 10 units
8/9 - 8/15: 5 days 2-a-day + 1 session/day is game = 11 units
8/2 - 8/8: a total of 5 days, 1 session per day, no pads, limited contact. 5 units
Probably starting Wednesday August 5, 2015. I will check and let everyone know. Or we can have some of those posters "in the know" tell us.
